Nature – Andreoni et al. (2023): Financing negative emissions leads to windfall profits and inequality at net zero

Funding large-scale negative emissions through a carbon market designed for traditional emission reduction strategies risks exacerbating long-term economic inequality. The authors suggest exploring alternative financing mechanisms that address this concern and that still ensure decarbonization at reasonable costs.
